pillowmusic.jpgI have a really hard time falling asleep at night. A really hard time. This despite the fact that I get too little sleep and am always exhausted. The mind wants to roam, it wants to replay the events of the day and anticipate those of tomorrow, and efforts to calm her down usually just result in greater agitation.

So I’ve tried just about everything – melatonin, meditation, and practically every CD ever made that says it will help you “Fall asleep NOW! NOW! NOW!” “Pillow Music” is the only one I’ve found so far that really works for me.

My gut tells me that this whole area is almost completely subjective – what works for me might be so cloying to you that it jolts you harder than an espresso.  But in my experience, this one works. I honestly don’t believe I’ve ever been awake for anything beyond track 2.

Now, if I could only find a pair of headphones that is comfortable to sleep in.
